    Let me start by saying--I hate going to the dentist. It takes more mental preparation than running…read morea marathon. I need to hype myself up just to book the appointment, and then double that to actually show up. But, a friend recommended Derksen Dentistry, and after some extensive (read: borderline obsessive) research, I decided to take the plunge. I needed an advanced root canal and figured, why not throw in a cleaning while I'm at it? The first thing that set the tone was my call to Susan. She was so calming and reassuring that I felt like I was calling a life coach, not a dentist's office. She promised me they'd make my visit as relaxing as possible, which is a tall order when you're about to face down a drill and some sharp objects in your mouth. When I arrived, I was promptly greeted (on time, too, which felt like an anomaly in itself). The assistant was super helpful, constantly checking in with me during the x-rays, which was nice since I was pretty sure my mouth was about to go on strike from all the poking. Then came Dr. Derksen. Now, I'm not the type to buy into "auras" or anything, but this guy had an aura of, "Hey, I've got this. You can relax." I felt it. He triple-checked to make sure I was completely numb before starting the root canal--because apparently, "feeling your teeth getting drilled" is not on anyone's bucket list. The whole process went smoothly, and to my surprise, I didn't leave feeling like I'd just fought a battle with a power tool. What really sealed the deal was that they followed up the next day to check on me. I mean, where else do you get a dentist who cares enough to make sure you're not secretly plotting your revenge on him for the trauma? Long story short, I walked out of Derksen Dentistry with all my teeth intact and a new, surprisingly positive outlook on dental visits. Dr. Derksen, you've earned a lifetime patient... just maybe not a lifetime of root canals, please.

    Dr. Derksen explained every step of the process. Not only is he an excellent dentist, but he is…read moretruly interested in his patients and their lives.

    I will be totally honest, I am deathly scared of dentists and don't get me started on my last oral…read moresurgeon. However I finally found an establishment that knows how to help keep you calm and keep a smile on your face even when they are working on you. Not only did he tell me he would treat me like family but he kept his promise. I felt nothing it was over before I knew it. His assistants were amazing as well. Keeping me company while I was waiting for the numbing to kick in and even answering every question I had. I also want to add that later that night, I received a call from Doc making sure I was OK to answer any questions. I will not go anywhere else. Hands down amazing. Thanks again!!!

    I would chew tinfoil before going back here! If you decide to go and while sitting in the chair he…read more(the Dr.) tells you that for an extra $36 dollars he can make the procedure a little less painfull and then the next week you get a bill for $360 then you should have listened to me.. If you decide to question him about it he will accuse you of calling him a liar and refuse to talk further, he will even go as far as to make his nurses back him up (the $36 dollar procedure was because he said novacaine wouldn't work), he had his assistant say, when confronted with the discrepancy, "I gave you two shots of novacaine and it didn't work so your anesthesia was mandatory".. Have you ever had a novacaine shot and forgotten about it? Well I guess forgetting two is common... This is such an easy scam for him because what can you do, not pay the bill and have it go to collections? Its a small enough amount that one person would spend more than the bill to fight it but large enough that a few of these a week probably pays for his cottage up north. One star for Lansing Oral Surgery is being generous...
